Great.  Here are the aforementioned patches rebased against 3.0.y, in
the hope that some interested person can confirm they still work.  The
only backporting needed was to adjust to the lack of
drivers/staging/lirc -> drivers/staging/media/lirc renaming.

Ben Hutchings (4):
  [media] staging: lirc_serial: Fix init/exit order
  [media] staging: lirc_serial: Free resources on failure paths of
	lirc_serial_probe()
  [media] staging: lirc_serial: Fix deadlock on resume failure
  [media] staging: lirc_serial: Do not assume error codes returned by
	request_irq()
